Grants to Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island junior researchers at eligible IHEs for research in biomedicine. Funding is intended to support projects in any field of biomedical science and may involve data, human subjects, and samples. Requests will be accepted from faculty at nonprofit academic, medical, or research institutions in Massachusetts, at Brown University in Rhode Island, or at Yale University in Connecticut. Applications from women and people from groups underrepresented in biomedical research are particularly encouraged.
Research projects must be conducted within the entity that is submitting the application. Award funds will go to that entity. For example, if an applicant submits from Harvard Medical School, the research project must be conducted at Harvard Medical School and not at an affiliate location (such as Massachusetts General Hospital or Boston Children’s Hospital).
Expenses eligible for support include the Recipient’s salary and fringe benefits; salaries and fringe benefits of personnel essential to the Project for only their work as it directly relates to the Project; publication of scientific data; travel to scientific meetings; laboratory and data processing supplies; and other direct expenses such as equipment essential to the Project. Award funds may only be used for salaries in proportion to the percent effort on the Project. However, percent effort may exceed the percent of total remuneration requested.
